Kaethe Kruse was the founder of renowned dolls. From what I remember my mother telling me, this woman was actually quite poor and as gifts for her children for Christmas one year she fashioned some dolls and used her own children as models for the faces. I don't know if this tale is true. It must have grown into a very popular manufacturing concern since the Kaethe Kruse dolls I have seen in Canada (imports) were truly beautiful and top quality. As a child I always wanted one, but they were rather pricey. Since my childhood is very long gone, one can imagine what the majority of dolls would have been like then. Certainly not like the lovely realistic porcelain dolls we see nowadays. Well, these dolls were not porcelain but they were every bit as realistic as the collector's items we see today -- a true work of art and probably extremely valuable now.

A German pen pal friend recently made reference to "Donauwörth, the home town of Käthe Kruse." I'm at a loss here...can anyone out there clue me in? Who is "Käthe Kruse," where is "Donauwörth," and what is their significance? Thanx..........Bill

I did not see any response to this post. Just in case it has not yet been cleared up let me set the matter straight. Salt and Thaler are only connected via the Joachimsthal in present Austria. It was here were salt was found and mined quite early in the middle ages. Salt has always been a prescious commodity and markets developed around it. Tal = Valley. The Joachimsvalley is then the place where a coined was minted which assisted in the transfer of wealth from salt to money. I do not know if the German word Tal or Thal in an older spelling originated from the Latin. I would rather think that it's roots are Germanic as such descriptions of land features usually are. Fred

We went to our friends in Columbia who had also assembled one of their granddaughters and off we went with 6 bicycles strapped to the rear of our respective Grand Cherokees to the MO Katy Park System. This is something really unique in that some private individuals (mainly a Ted Jones) saw to it that 200 miles of abandoned railway of the Texas, Kansas Missouri Railway, were converted into a long pathway accessible only by foot or bicycle. We went to a particularly scenic portion of the trail including a long tunnel, chiseled through the rock, and then drove about 6 or 7 miles along the Missouri river. The rail was basically cut into the riverbed with a solid wall of sandstone going way up on the other side. In some cases the wall was natural from the eons of water raushing along and in others they had to cut into it some more to get the rail through. As spectacular as the trail is, I was absolutely fascinated by the river. We've all read about the floods they recently had in parts of Missouri. Well, all that water has to go somewhere and we saw it rush down the river towards St Louis and the Mississippi. I've never seen such a huge river run so fast and could oly imagine being out there hopelessly rushed down without a chance of getting to shore. I timed the river by the speed of the huge tree trunks which were being ripped down stream to be about 7 mph. It almost looked like the great big cleaning of the valley as everything imaginable was floating down river. There were barrels, tubs, buckets, plastic milk bottles, cups and jugs along with tires and then the immense number of trees all going somewhere fast. Under the I70 bridge across some of the junk had piled up and one could easily park a few cars on the pile but most just rushed on to an uncertain destination. I was simply captured by the majesty of the river taking along whatever it could find. After we doubled back we had lunch at a nice trail side cafe and then went back home to prepare for the next event of the day. We had tickets for the Lyceum in Arrow Rock, MO where Mame was playing but first dinner at the John Huston Tavern which he built in 1834 at the start of the Santa Fe trail in Arrow Rock where passengers debarked from their boats to go further west. The whole town today is a National Historic Landmark with a permanent population of 70. The whole place is very authentic almost as if time forgot. It is really out there in no-mans-land and yet they have maintained the repertory theater for over 40 years already. The tavern is authentic with many of it's former sleeping rooms decorated as per the period. One really gets the feeling of what it was like out here in the early 19th century. We are now off to Sedalia. Fred

Claire, Your story sounded so familiar. I too grew up in northern NJ (Paterson to be exact). As you stated the bus service was terrific so our family never owned a car. Walking was a way of life and even if we took the bus to school in the morning, many of us walked home in the afternoon. We also did a lot of bike riding. When I was married and moved to Calif. there was so little transportation where we lived you needed a car to go anywhere. The same is true here in Maryland and as a result we and all our children and their children are always in a car. We do the most walking when on vacation....it so beneficial to your cholesterol level to walk. When we returned from a month of walking in Europe my HDL level (good cholesterol) went up to 98 and my doctor could not believe it. When we credit the Europeans for less heart disease we forget how much they walk and ride bikes in all the countries and get good exercise. Betty

Ralf, great story. Just a few thoughts from inside Germany: <<There was no speed limit on the autobahn back then. (There is now, but no on pays any attention to it)>> There's still no general speed limit on the autobahn. <<German drivers were CRAZY>> I think it would be a good idea not to try to drive a car somewhere in Southern Europe, the Near or Far East or South America :) <<It was however, also made illegal to impede traffic in the passing lane.>> If you consider that a normal German autobahn still has just 2 lanes for each direction this seems to be a reasonable solution. If you have 5 lanes each like in North America you may well find other solutions more appropriate. <<The Octoberfest in Munich (held in September)>> To be fair to them it has to be said that it starts in September and ends in October :) <<a person could walk through a park at any time , day or night, and never have any fear of being attacked.>> Unfortunately this is no longer the case. Sad. I would never walk alone through any park by night :( Heinz _________________________ Heinz L.

My thoughts about living in and visiting Germany. It was in November of 1962 that I found out that I was being transferred from Toronto, Canada, to Cologne (Koeln) Germany. We left Canada shortly after New Years day to New York where we boarded the SS United States for its next trip to Bremerhaven. With us we had our eight month old daughter, Karen. The ship had just returned from the Carribean Sea, where it had been battered by a tropical storm, and all was not ship shape. In addition, crossing the North Atlantic in January, was not at all something to look forward to, and we were right. The ship sped up during the night and slowed down during the day. It didn't matter, Sonja and I both lay in bed most of the days, just to keep everything down. What upset us even more was Karen, our daughter, stood in the crib, bouncing up and down, thoroughly enjoying herself. We landed in Bremerhaven and next day boarded the train to Koeln. My first impressions of Germany were helped by the fact that Sonja was completely fluent in German, albeit with a southern dialect. As we travelled on the very fast European train, down from the north, I was struck by the buildings still in ruins from the war, along some portions of the RR line. We spent the next three months living on the 12 floor of the Bull Building in Koeln/Muelheim. First things first, of course. We bought a used Ford Opel Caravan. and within a month had ventured out on the Autobahn, south past Limburg, Frankfurt, Mannheim, cut off on the AB to Heidelburg, through Sinsheim and finally to Heilbronn, and my Mother-in-law, Wilma Eble, in Heilbronn/Sontheim. The first thing Sonja said to me when we arrived at the house where she spent her youth, on the outskirts of Sontheim, was "The house and property don't look as big as I remember them." What do I remember about my first trip on the Autobahn? German drivers were CRAZY. There was no speed limit on the autobahn back then. (There is now, but no on pays any attention to it). I learned very soon, that when you passed someone, you had to do it very quickly, because those blinking headlights 3to 4 kms behind you in the passing lane, was probably a huge Mercedes Benz,, telling you to get the hell out of the way, because everyone should know, you do not impede a person in a very large, expensive car on the Autobahn. I then found out how big a Merc looked when it was only about 1cm from my bumper. This rather frightening habit of blinking headlights and tailgaiting was made illegal sometime between the time we left Germany in 1971, and when we went back in 1994. Thank God. It was however, also made illegal to impede traffic in the passing lane. When you want to pass, you had to do it quickly, in and out. When I took to the autobahn when we returned in 1995, I was ready to get back on the plane and go back to Canada. They were still crazy. I found out, however, if you can make through the first three days of driving, and you learn their rules (not the legal rules, the "in practice rules" ) then you are able to drive comfortably because you become as crazy as they are. Back in the 60s there were only half the number of autobahns that there are today, and half the traffic. The most dangerous part of driving on the autobahn back then was rounding a curve or over a slight rise, and finding traffic stacked up for kilometers. Today, of course, the central Radio network reports every fifteen minutes on the "Stau" throughout Germany. i.e. translated into English) "-on the Autobahn # -- between Munich and Augsburg there is a 15km long stau". At any given time throughout Germany there are about 5-10 "Stau". All I can advise is that unless you absolutely must, stay off the autobahn, and see the real Germany on the secondary roads. Back to my story. About three months after we arrived in Koeln, we were transferred to Munich, where we lived until 1967. Two of our daughters were born in Munich and are therefor both original "Münchner Kindl". When I think back now, I truly believe that Munich was the nicest city in which we have ever lived. (Perhaps Ottawa, Ontario, runs a close second.) During our stay in Munich, we were very close to the German culture of Bavaria and southern Germany, and I came to love it very dearly. The life style was very attractive. the customs extremely interesting and memorable and the beer great. The Octoberfest in Munich (held in September) was one of the most interesting phenomenon in which I have ever overindulged, but wouldn't have missed my three years involvement in trying to have a krug in each tent. To bring this to an end, I will say that the thing that impressed me the most about Germany in the 60s was that in the cities and elsewhere, a person could walk through a park at any time , day or night, and never have any fear of being attacked. This was a sentiment that was expressed by all persons visiting from North America. Whether it is the same today, I don't know, since I stay away from the big cities. Too much traffic, resulting in too many "Stau". Enough is now enough. Best Regards.

Hi Claire, "Pommern" is the German word for Pommerania, a section of north-eastern Germany. If you don't have ancestors from there, you've probably not bothered to remember the name of it, just I can't remember the Hesse-Kassel and Pfalz kind of names. Many Pommerns settled in WI, and they have Pommeranian Day (Tag) every year. I had hoped (rather unrealistically) that I might be able to visit it this year. Fred also has Pommern ancestors, so that's why I mentioned it in connection with his trip.
